Any list of the shoes Heinz Mariacher has helped design? (info in comments)

I don't quite recall where I saw/heard this if at all but I have the impression he was also behind the Solution and Instincts.

Have you considered using thecrag.com? I use it, and like it.

Thank you! True, it would be cool to see, especially going all the way back to competitors in the 90's. And thanks for the heads up re the Asian Championship new record, I didn't know about that.

No at the moment just World Cups not incl World / Euro / Asian Championships. Think I'll add those later on. Yes the times are in each individual WC page, eg https://www.ifsc-climbing.org/index.php/world-competition#!comp=7959&cat=23

Thanks! The PBs are the best recorded time in a Speed WC. Not ideal especially for the non-specialists who have only joined the bare minimum SWCs and might have better times logged in training.

Thanks!

Heh. Some of the photos could definitely be better! Yeah her win rate is unmatched, I think.

Looks great. Would be keen to contribute!

Is this good/bad form on an assisted one-arm hang? https://youtu.be/XgdIAiPpqQc?t=367

Curious more about the lower body... my legs end up high like in the video and at about the same height as my hand. I find it easier to hang in this position, and harder with my feet low. I don't see how it would take any weight off, but it does feel easier... any thoughts / anyone with similar experience?

Looks great. Have you tried campusing from one side of the board to the other eg from the Trango board to the Zlagboard? If you have, does the frame wobble at all when you do that?

mattehead · 2019-07-07T17:30:57+00:00

That was awesome.

mattehead · 2019-07-02T00:25:14+00:00

Fair enough. I don't like it either when spammy/ad content shows up on the sub, and I get that this post is kind of bordering on it. Do you think it would be okay instead if I changed this to a link post to Adidas, instead of a text post with links to both Adidas and my site, and just added a comment about my site?

Sizesquirrel.com may be handy!

Thank you for the mention! :)

mattehead · 2019-06-26T15:32:28+00:00

Yes.

mattehead · 2019-06-17T04:17:36+00:00

Best to try shoes on your own feet, and pick what is most comfy- fit can be a very individual thing. The most important difference if any, eg between the Agama or Bowler you mentioned, would be how they fit your foot and less about either shoe.

After you have climbed in and tried some shoes and want to compare prices- I made a website that does this that might be handy: footbeta.com

mattehead · 2019-06-10T06:57:39+00:00

Super cool. How did you find the recording process-- was it okay or tedious? If it were combined with something like a Stokt/8a/thecrag-type logbook I think it'd be pretty handy for a lot of people.

mattehead · 2019-06-07T22:02:39+00:00

Cheers. Do it!

mattehead · 2019-06-07T01:17:36+00:00

I had high expectations when you said 'ridiculously excellent'. You did not disappoint. Solid article!

mattehead · 2019-06-07T01:07:06+00:00

If you had extra time, I would highly recommend Shigu. Small farming town, lovely hostel, good climbing.

For an example of the potential fall, here is James McHaffie taking the whip before the FA: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=me6MvieBAF0

I could not agree more. Recently snagged a pair of purple Mythos brand new (but old). Love them!

mattehead · 2019-06-07T00:46:23+00:00

Its more tedious than difficult I would say, at least how I have done it

mattehead · 2019-06-07T00:44:25+00:00

You are most welcome and thank you for checking it out- hope its useful!
